Leadership Group

A couple of months ago Devin and I kicked off an 8 week leadership group called Momentum.  Because we have enjoyed it so much we are going to do it again.

We had been praying specifically “how do we leverage the collective leadership capability of the people at Freedom Church so that people far from God can experience life in Christ.”

The initial answer to that question has come in the form of an exclusive leadership group entitled Momentum.  We will meet on Thursday evenings from 6:30 – 8:30 PM for a total of eight weeks beginning October 14  and ending December 9 (one week off for Thanksgiving).

This will be an intensive leadership experience designed to increase your capacity as a leader and follower of Jesus Christ.  You must commit to attending every gathering (and getting there on time!), reading the three books that I have chosen, listen to several messages, and taking part in a final project with the group!

If you are interested, please apply online at http://freedomchurch.tv/momentum. The applications received no later than September 30th will be reviewed and 15 participants will be selected.

Hope to see you there!

Give Me Freedom

We continue our Brand-New Series this Sunday with what will be an unforgettable experience at Freedom Church!

We are doing something we have never done before that has me both excited and scared to death!  It’s going to be a life changing day that you do not want to miss!

It all happens at North Cobb High School at 9:45 and 11:15!

MidWeek Review

  • Fantastic Day this past Sunday as 35 people signed up to lead a group this semester at Freedom Church.
  • We have completely changed our groups strategy in order to ensure vision alignment across the spectrum.
  • It’s now accurate to say that our groups exist so that people far from God can experience life in Christ.
  • You have the power to impact the lives of people!  My goal is to equip and empower you to carry out the calling of God on your life!
  • Please be praying about an opportunity that we have to carry the message of the Gospel further and faster than we ever have before.  It is going to require audacious faith and the favor of God to pull this off.  I believe it will happen through the power of our collective prayer! I’ll keep you updated.
  • Revolutionary movements of God demand revolutionary sacrifice and guarantee revolutionary reward!
  • We are planning a huge baptism celebration at both Worship Experiences on October 10th.  Sign up here!
  • We are doing something on Sunday that we have never done before and will probably never do again.  It isn’t dangerous at all, but I have been advised not to let Devin enter the auditorium until after the illustration is complete.  Don’t be late!

Baptism Celebration!

325 people have experienced life in Christ in our first couple years of existence at Freedom Church!  One of the most exciting things we do at Freedom Church is celebrate with people who have become followers of Jesus!

On Sunday (October 10th), we will be having a huge Baptism Celebration at both 9:45 and 11:15.

If you have accepted Christ and have not been baptized since you made that decision – sign up right here!

Invite your friends and family and I promise that it will be an incredible day!
